It’s in a Central location with dinning options and shopping in close proximity. The staff was wonderful and breakfast was very well done. Be aware that if you’re driving, the car park / Bus station a block away and charges per day for parking spots. (Which is fine, just an FYI)

Avoid the breakfast
Not awful, room was very nice. Was extremely diserpointed with the breakfast we turned up just after 6:30 which is the time breakfast starts and it was cold and rubbery. Honestly had stomach issues for the rest of the day.

Great location, near good restaurants. Staff was friendly. But they need to fix the drainage in the shower. It was the only thing that let the stay down, otherwise I recommend this hotel!

Hot rooms, average stay
Efficient check in, room was clean and tidy. Sofa bed was very uncomfortable to sleep on, double bed was ok although the room was very hot (mid Sept). Air con “on” but made no difference. Breakfast was chaotic and too busy, had to queue for a table. Decent breakfast although no tea bags or sugar left. Again very hot in there.
